Rigged, lol.

Well, it's not like superusers or seeing hole cards or so on. But there cards that come out sure would be more profitable if they happened to come out in certain ways. Not to cheat someone or favor one player more than others, but just such as to generate more action from whoever is playing.

the thing I like most about carbonpoker is their 5 and 10 dollar mtts usually have anywhere from 80 to 125 people in them. You can make a final table without playing for 7 hours.

Ean, I see that you are a new member and I don`t wish to be mean, but you won`t get much support for that view here at CC. There are about eleventy thousand posts here claiming that online poker is rigged and the grand total of all the evidence produced to support the claim is approximately none.

For an example of what I mean, check out this thread.

No offense taken, Egon. I don't even say that I fully support the "conspiracy theory". I merely point out that it's not out of the realm of possibility. That, and when some people come out and say things like, "there would be no reason for the site to want certain card combinations or flows more than any other", well that's just a very false statement that deserves to be challenged.

Players, competing, want a fair and "random" game. casinos, B&M or online, would love to have the higher action of player1 flop set, player2 turn straight, player1 river boat, etc. Of course they would love that, now whether they can DO anything to cause that to happen more often.....that, as you say is what has yet to be shown can be done or has been done.

Hopefully THAT clarification is still palletable to the prevailing winds "here at CC"?

I just started playing at Carbon last week -- really like it so far. The software could use a few extra features, but overall it's pretty excellent.

Also, there could be a few more microstakes cash tables, but that's just nit-picking.

friday...i challenged in the cc freeroll at carbon...i got owned...nothing went right at all. AQ, AK, JJ...all destroyed...someone always had a better hand...AK lost to a QQ that hit a flush after my A hit and that was the end of me. i wasn't mad...it was no fault of mine or their's, that's just how it goes sometimes. but anyway, i was on carbon still...i had 7 fun step 3 tickets i'd won...figured i better play them before they expire while i was there...won 3 of them...that's $3 of richness. i didn't play there that much before. i had won $1 for 10th place in a $50 fr there once. then got 5th in a cc freeroll there for $5. but i started playing there, in the past week and a half, i've won 7 fun step 3's for a dollar a piece. i should try to play my limit of 10 fun step 1's every day since playing 10 at a time only seems to take like 20 mins. the step 2 doesn't take much time. the step 3 plays longer but the competition is that weak, an hour for a dollar against 9 other ppl is worth more than 7 hrs against 7500 ppl for 50 cents.
